I am having a tough time from keeping this vi I made from consuming so much memory over time. I made it using LV 8.0.1. Basically, all it is doing is reading in analog input line from a usb device linked to a sensor that basically monitors the line. Whenever the sensor goes on, the count increments by one no matter how long the signal is held on for and then the time and count of this event is then written to a data log lvm file. This occurs each time the sensor goes on. Which is why I am uncertain as to why it still consumes memory other than when it first goes high and writes to the data log. I didn't think it would keep using the memory up if the sensor was off. I was wondering if anybody has any suggestions on keeping a simple vi like this from consuming so much memory. Basically, if running for more than a 1/2 hour, the smaller computer gets a memory dump crash (blue screen with some kind of a reference to nimxdfk.dll). I was unable to see any refnums that needed to be closed within the while loops. Am I supposed to clear the task after each iteration? A little confused. It is fully commented on if you have the time to look it over. Thank you very much for your suggestions.
